Actually it is working properly now, it was a combination of EmbyCon and maybe the newer Nvidia driver in Milhouses Gerenic builds...

Either way I am a happy camper.

The CIR likely has a real power button function that is handled by eventlircd. Disabling it needs some effort.

To disable power button handling in eventlircd:

cp /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/98-eventlircd.rules /storage/.config/udev.rules.d

Find the following three lines in the copied file and delete them.

Code

SUBSYSTEMS=="acpi", ATTRS{hid}=="LNXPWRBN", \
  ENV{eventlircd_enable}="true", \
  ENV{eventlircd_evmap}="default.evmap"

After reboot eventlircd handling is disabled but systemd takes over and still powers off the machine.

To disable power button handling in systemd create or extend /storage/.config/autostart.sh with the following line and reboot.

Code

systemd-inhibit --what=handle-power-key sleep 1000d &

Now the power event reaches kodi and can be handled with a custom keymap.

Please take a note to update the modified 98-eventlircd.rules file on every LibreELEC update.

This makes a bunch of other stuff not work properly, I would not recommend doing this. After I reversed this change sudden the second suggestion above kicked in, now the power button just brings up the power menu

Actually I turned off hardware acceleration and most of my troubles have gone.

I have now installed a Nvidia 560 Ti which seems to work better but still not perfect.

Is there any tweaks to get it working any better?

I notice this latest version sometime will not relaunch after you exit once.

Also the cursor is relatively ok on AMD graphics, but on Nvidia it's flashing and disappearing often.

Also can you possibly add a hard coded back as exit, or is there any way that's possible?

Also initial launch is super slow, but I guess that's just how it is...

I am wanting to use it to admin services on my libreelec, so not looking for any video playback in chrome.

Thanks a lot for your efforts

That is a native function of the remote, can't disable it

Looking for a real solution for this too

I am trying to achieve the same thing, I have a usb air mouse remote and the power button shuts down the system immediately, despite having done the suggested edits already.

Any other suggestions?

Yeah I looked around and saw libreelec 8 builds, but I wanted to get 9 working...

But after rethinking this I have decided to not waste time and just get a newer card.

Thanks for the help though

The Emby server addon for libreelec makes accessing the media easy.

Is there any chance of getting this card working properly in LibreElec 9 x64?

I don't want to give up on it since it is almost working well, it plays using hardware decoding until you seek, then it switches to software.

I have tried using the xorg-nvidia-legacy.conf file but it doesn't seem to do anything.

Any suggestions would be welcome.

Inputstream adaptive has a hold on me, so I will not be rolling back. I guess I am stuck for now...

Is anybody able to get docker working? Nothing works after I install them...

Yeah I don't intent on doing anything other than browsing, all video playback is taken care of by addons like netflix and embycon. So for me it works very well.

Not sure what was supposed to be different about that version, but nothing changed here.

Does anyone think it's possible to get the chrome remote desktop extension working? I guess the remote connection service may be wishful thinking, but at least if the viewing part worked it would be awesome.

OK I did not realize all the dependancies...

What about upnp option for tigervnc?

I have not looked into it much but I think there is a DDNS, will have to do more digging.

Teamviewer was released for linux so why would it not get ported over.

VNC is nothing like teamviewer. For remote managing my familys installs it provides little benefit when you want to connect over the internet. There is too much configuration required to get it working.

Whereas Teamviewer is install and your ready to go.

Now if VNC had upnp port mapping and DDNS then it might be a choice.

Everything seems to work pretty well minus the audio, I get nothing... I even manually typed the audio device name in the settings. There is only the HDMI audio out, one choice.

However ultimately I do not need audio for my usage so it doesn't really matter to me. I do notice this version seems way faster.

Is there any way to have the back button exit the app?
